I worked night shift for about a year and all I could think of when I went home was a nice comfortable bed. The bit of sleep aid you're taking may help with the noise, errant light, visitors and anything else that will, without fail, disturb you so I highly recommend you take your medicine!!

The expert whisky tasters I have met recommend doing tastings early in the AM 9:30 - 11:00. Seems your palate is better in the morning. So if anyone gives you grief about it just tell them your a professional!

I work overnights too and to answer your question, no it’s not wrong for us night shift folk. So drink up!

If anyone judges you, they don’t know the nightshift struggles

What do you do? I am a pharmacist in a large hospital here in Gainesville. Work 7, then get 7 off. Love the time off really.

I too work at a local hospital as a nursing assistant. And do the 12 hour 8p-8a. I love the 12 hours/3 nights a week sometimes 4 nights if I’m working my weekend.

Although my hospital was purchased by a big healthcare company so they’ve had staff go to 8 hours. I’m one of a few left that didn’t jump ship yet while my co workers all panicked.



I think @CVAC085 is a lady of the night, hooker hours are rough.
Shhhhh. Nobody supposed to know about my secret life....LOL.

I'm a third shifter and work 5 to 6 nights a week 50 to 70 hour work weeks and nothing beats a cigar or pipe after the kids are off to school and the house is empty than a pipe or cigar and a good drink.
Bourbon or rum or even a good cheap wine. Neighbors know I work nights so they ignore me mostly. I might pee on their leg if they didnt. Or moon then. Hump their leg like a puppy. I'm 45. Its allowed. Some of the best conversations I ever had were during summertime when outside doing this. Im even funnier when drinking.
Drink up!
